Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Use this guide to replace the control board in your Whirlpool Refrigerator.
The control board processes the inputs for the dispenser assembly and other related assemblies. If your refrigerator is not dispensing properly, or if the dispenser buttons on your refrigerator aren't working, then your control board might be broken.
This guide will work for most Whirlpool refrigerators. This guide is written with a model WRS315SDHW refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
